Has anyone tried running the psp version of retroarch inside adrenaline for science?

hangs, probably due to adrenaline because the same binary works on a real PSP.

Try running it through ark? I think someone over on reddit was able to get it running on their 3.63 vita with ark.

Still not possible for games to have box art ?

Hey guys, I am just installed pcsx rearmed. Need little help here. How to use analog as dpad? And can we change the graphic? Because the graphic looks blurry to me.

Settings/Video turn off bilinear filtering

Run a game and press left shoulder,right shoulder,down,Start ,Select to get into Quick menu
From there select Controls/UserAnalogtodigitaltype select left analogue

This looks to be good news, but don't expect it to be running smoothly anytime soon.

Retroarch can't even run GBA full speed after months, hope they work on optimization instead of new emulators.

Awesome! Given that Mario64 is very playable on the PSP and other games are very nearly playable, surely the vita would get at least a few great games really playable!

Well done Vita Libretro team,
A great addition keep them coming.

Could you guys consider to report retroarch vita issues in the actual github retroarch page?
I made a post named "Vita testing" reporting issues and I think is more productive them reporting here since the Devs are never in this forum.
Just for consideration.

Dear god, all those people responding the the tweet assuming that PCSX2 and Dolphin are just around the corner. The devs themselves say that N64 runs like a slideshow at the moment, but that doesn't seem to have tempered people's unrealistic expectations.

Guys, how do I get out of the game and choose another rom?

 

[legend_zelda]

I tried that and had no reply/feedback.

Also not many people on there.

This is the most healthiest forum/thread for the vita port

The Libertro guy's were all on this thread and mentioned that this thread was the best place to post.

So is this an official request or not?

First post here (I joined after striking out on like 3 other forums with these two issues on RetroArch 1.40...)

Anybody know how to make PCSX-ReArmed work after the Vita goes to sleep? The Vita is a portable on-the-go device, and having PCSX-ReArmed crap out every time the device goes to sleep kinda makes playing PSX games impossible...saw several other people with this issue on the forums but no solution...

Second problem I've been dealing with is how it takes 9 HOURS TO SCAN 100 MAME ROMs! (yes, all capitals because I find this absolutely crazy!). Those ~100 rom .ZIP files have something like 1,830 files in them. It takes ~18 seconds to scan each individual file, thus over 9 hours to scan them all. When the Vita goes to sleep every 30 minutes no matter what (which pauses scanning) I can't even leave it on overnight to get the job done (and for the record I'm currently on hour 4 of scanning a mere 43 Playstation ROMs...and still have 11 to go...)

Welcome.
If you look further back in the thread somebody made a PC EXE util to do the scanning.
Now we have USB you may be able to do it directly off the vita rather than a folder on the PC.
